A live dissection of one of the most important issues of our age: the intersection of social justice and AI.

Join the Scottish AI Alliance and Director of B’AI Global Forum, Professor Yuko Itatsu, of the University of Tokyo, for this engaging event that marries the themes of social justice with the principles of trustworthy, ethical, and inclusive AI.

Hear from Professor Yuko Itatsu on the intersections of social justice and artificial intelligence, framed in discussion with Scotland’s AI Strategy.
